Recovery Suggestion: /Users/riber/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/digitalCurrency-hiyiyrokjaydkiagjimlwohehrtu/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/digitalCurrency.app is not a valid path to an executable file. Please rebuild the project to ensure that all required executables are created. Check your project settings to ensure that a valid executable will be built.
System Information

Check if all files are available.
Targets -> Build Phases -> Compile Sources
If you see faint files, then they need to be removed or added.
Under "Build Settings" - "Architectures" check that you don't have "arm64" excluded under "Excluded architectures" for release, as all new iOS devices use this architecture.
I'm also get the same error. Let me share how I fix it.
I write cpp code on vscode.
I deleted a .cpp/.h file that I didn't need anymore a few days ago.
Everything nice and happy when I working on vscode.
".app is not a valid path" appeared when i switched back to the xcode to verification function.
I was confused.
(I don't immediately remember my delete operation a few days ago)
The key isn't the dialog showed "Executable Not Found",
Switch to "Issue Navigator" and drag to the bottom...
Now the ERROR shows up in front of U:
Finally the solution is :
TARGETS -> Select your ‘Target' -> Build Phases -> Compile Sources :
Select the ".cpp" file that had been delete, then "Remove Items" by click the second "-" button in the lower left corner.
I fixed it by adding x86_64 to VALID_ARCHS. Build Setting search "VALID_ARCHS",check the x86_64 is there or not, add and run.It worked with me .
resolve it using pod install.
as Frank said, I also use RN in my app.
I have tried clean derived data & even reboot, still happening
Check the Executable File in the Info(.plist). It should be named the same as your Product in Products
I have this issue on a react native application and I can resolve it reinstalling cocoaPods.
pod install
Inside the ios folder on your react native project.
Check if you have any other info.plist-s added to project.
I had similar issue when I added some pod sources (MKStoreKit) to the project - it had several info plists for different platforms which interfered with original one. Deleting wrong info plists solved the issue.
I have to delete the 'DerivedData' folder:
$ rm -Rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData
EDIT: I've found a solution...
The problem in my case was because of project configurations and Pods. In the long life of my project the configuration files for the schemes changed and Xcode, using the new build system, did not like.
To fix it, just go to the Project -> Info tab. Under Configurations change the Based on Configuration value of the Targets and set them to None. Please note that I've changed only the Targets.
Now close Xcode and launch pod install from the Terminal.
reopen Xcode and launch your project.
Old answer:
I may have found a workaround to this issue... not a solution but a workaround.
I have to work on a not really recent project that was built using the Legacy System that, as you may know, is deprecated now.
While I was using Xcode 12 everything was fine. Then I installed the Xcode 13 GM and I upgrated the project to the new building system and I started to experience this issue. I have the same problem with any Xcode 13.x version. With the betas I had not, as far as I can remember.
The strange thing is that "sometimes" (I could not reproduce it sorry), the new build system worked... but just for a while.
The building phase succeeds but then, then the app is installed on simulator OR on a real device, I have that annoying message that we know...
This morning I may have find a solution...
In Xcode go to File -> Workspace Settings, keep the Legacy Build System and check the box "Do not show a diagnostic issue about build system deprecation"
Now the app builds and can be installed.
Honestly I don't know it is an Xcode bug or not... maybe it is.
if you are using git, there's huge chance there might be conflict in .pbxproj due to multiple people adding stuffs together. During the resolution xcode might try to recover those 'lost references' it got confused and unable to resolve the once there references. find those 'recovered references' in project explorer and remove them if they are invalid
Had the same issue. I deleted the simulators and added them again.
Please make sure that your runner isn't missing AppDelegate.swift or Runner-Bridging-Header.h file.
In my case, my AppDelegate.swift file and Runner-Bridging-Header.h files were deleted, so I copy and paste both the files in ios>Runner folder again from some other project (usually both of these files are same in all projects, just need to add the code lines for firebase configurations).
I'm getting the following error:
An internal error occured. Editing functionality may be limited
for all my projects I open with xcode. I've tried the solutions that I've read on here, the only thing I haven't done is restart my Mac, as I am working with macincloud. The error is there for all my old projects. How can I fix this when I'm using macincloud?
This happened to me when I had two versions of Xcode running on the same machine.
The Xcode-select value could be pointing to the wrong version. (For example, if you're running Xcode 9, but it's pointing to an Xcode 8 version that's also installed on your machine, you might run into this)
If this is your issue, then try changing the value to the right directory by using something like this:
sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
This also, however, happens if files have incorrect permissions or a library/developer file has been manually deleted.
If you have only one version of Xcode installed, try deleting the derived data of the project and force-closing + restarting Xcode, or even reinstalling the IDE. More on deleting derived data here.
Let me know if any of this was helpful!
I recommend shutting down the app and then restarting. If this doesn't work, then it could be that you have to update XCode. You could also use an alternative to MacinCloud, like XCodeClub.com
Hope this helps!
I had this similar issue in my Mac and the issue has been resolved by my self. I had tried all the answers and also some from other links.
At last what I did is, I checked the storyboard that I have been working as, source code. Then removed the last view controller (Scene) that I had created and been working on from that storyboard file. Then cleaned and removed derived data. Restarted Xcode. And then it was looking fyn. I think there were some issues with the constraints on a storyboard that had around 8 scenes, so that Xcode LLVM couldn't load it correctly. Thanks for the response.
While working in Interface Builder within Xcode (4.3.2), the application froze and I had to reopen it again.
Now I am getting this error when trying to open the nib file. What gives?
I have already starting a project from scratch when this happened yesterday as I thought maybe some project files got corrupted, but now it's happened again on another project.
Any solutions?
Thanks
Console states that :
Apparently it is an Xcode problem, so I guess that is no answer at the moment to the problem :/
I think the only solution at the moment is to downgrade (Tried with Xcode 4.3.1 but still the same problem).
Can't really see any other option.
I'm trying to update my storyboard file and it doesn't open correctly due to the following error:
".xcodeproj cannot be opened because the project file cannot be parsed.".
I'm on the latest version of MonoTouch, so I don't think a previous bug can be attributed to this. Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers,
Davoc
It looks like this bug, which has already been fixed (but is not in a released version yet).
Comment 2 has a possible workaround (but if it doesn't work you should file another bug, since it's not the same issue).
I am tryingo to build a GUI application using the JUCE framework on MAC OSX.
I have dowloaded all the API's and got a small hello World program running fine.
However, when I add files to my Xcode project I get compilation errors that say that the Juce library files don`t exist. I would like to know how to get the library API in the build and link path in XCode so that it finds the neccesary files for compilation.
What I would do on Visual Studio going to properties and adding aditional library dependencies, is what I need to do in XCode but I don't know how.
Any help greatly appreciated.
thanks.
Old question but maybe a useful answer in the future....
If you have the "Hello World" up and runnning, it should already be linked to the library. Are you using the introjucer? This should help get everything up and running for you. If you are, you need to add classes etc to the introjucer, as this sets up Xcode / VStudio for you. If not, (Presuming XCode 3 as you are using leopard) goto Xcode > Preferences. Scroll along to source trees, and add the path to the juce folder in there.
